What do you have to say about Congress? Tell us in the November installment of the Smithereens Cartoon Caption Contest.
Wednesday, Nov. 14, 2012 | 6 p.m.
A new Congress has been elected, but we're going to give you one more chance to tell us what you think about your representatives.
It's time once again for the monthly Smithereens Cartoon Caption Contest, where Mike Smith provides a cartoon with a blank word bubble and you tell us what it should say.
Just enter your suggestion in the comments below or on our Facebook page.
Entries will be accepted until 5 p.m. Monday. The Sun's editors will pick their five favorites, and then readers can vote for the best from Wednesday through Nov. 26. We'll announce the winner Nov. 30.
You can see last month's winner here.
Good luck.
Why bother? All the key does is make him talk, not actually do anything.
The status quo: One turn to the Left and one to the Right.
Looks like he never got out of Committee.
Is this how you wind up in Congress?
One good turn deserves another.
He's Twisted, Sister.
He's a First Turn Congressman
I tried to pawn him at the local pawn shop and even Chumlee rejected him.
Does this one come with instructions?
Of course it talks out of both sides of the mouth!
Strange, he goes one way before the election, then another way after.
I hear those wind up pols are made in China.
I hope he has turn limits.
'It only works 150 days a year. Must be one of it's days off.'
You can wind it up all you want, it won't work unless you give it money.
Oh, that .... it's called a "lobbyist key". You crank it and he sticks his hand out.
It turns on a dime...our dime.
It's a giant self tapping screw.
Trigger mechanism is in that huge pocket.
The first 3 letters of their name sums it up! CON The Opposite of PROgress is CONgress!
That Dear is a toy for Lobbyist and Billionaires.
Sorry dear, but they were all out of Mr. potato heads.
Elections over! Now they can unwind and forget their promises until next election of blame.
They aint no energy bunnies, thats for sure!
He gets wound up playing PAC-man.
He winds down before every recess.
Whats with this one? Should we wind him up and see what direction he goes in this time?
He seems to be in a state of shock due to wearing his wife's trouser liners.
He's the fiscal conservative. We wind him up and he parades around every 2 years.
Can we check the DNA on the key to see who owns this Congressman!!
